roseberry!

so far, i haven't get the chance to see any 14th floor neighbours except for my next door 4rm neighbour once...

Hahaha~

Was telling hubby about shutiao who is at 15th floor...

hi neighour, crazygirl48, all,

how your defect, been solved? after the contractor refill the grout, will it's still come off? they have't done my defect yet.. maybe this week.. as they mention will start work.

My grout was redone last week..

So far, I haven't done any normal or chemical washing yet...

Cannot see whether the new one will drop off..

But sure look better than the dirty looking grout..

BUt some grout was not done properly....was thinking whether want to complain anot..

I saw someone posted...saying that the grout may came off becos it will not "eat" unless u redo all the tiles...

I think the defects are forever no ending...

:) I would love to! :)

great, so let's arrange a day like if this wkend u guys wil b goin down, mayb can meet up for a while :) others who r interested, let me know too. i try to coordinate :notti:

crazygirl - so u shld b on the corridor opp our unit one ah.. hmm which corner u belong to? hee.

popeye gal - we got prob wif our grouting too. the floor feels powdery no matter how many times we mop. hai. seems like the powdery thing from the grout which has been redone is coming off. but after bsc ppl came to mop for us, then last sun we went down to wash the floor again, now seems better. at least when i use my fingers to rub the groutin, nothin reali came off. we'll c how it goes. the whole of last wk bsc din inform us of the progress. not even after they changed the letterbox lock..now cant open my letterbox :P it's the 4th wk already and they haven even call us to tell us when they can handover. haiz :unsure:

My unit is beside the MCP.. !!

hehehehe~

That day hubby just go and made noise while waiting for the starhub technicians to check the TV signals..

Finally common toliet door can open wider if not always "stuck" in the middle of the basin...how to wash face or hands...

Then he realised that our main door now very hard to close it..seems like the wooden door has expanded abit..another complaint made...

waiting again...

oic.. then i know which unit to look out for from upstairs when we are there liao :)

hmm our main door initially was very tight too. had prob openin and closin it. after rectification works start, seems ok already. but last wkend again have some prob with it. duno is it due to the expansion.. but weird.. how come it wil keep expandin and contractin? then like tat how to solve the prob.. :yamseng:

today i was there..saw ur main door open..

i think someone is inside...started ur reno already?

hubby was saying that the nature of the wood is causing this problem..

sigh...

creating so many problems!!

shutiao, u got msn? perhaps can chat.. :sport-smiley-018:

Edited by crazygirl48

Anyway, for me, I gave up on BSC. I have all logs of emails to I sent to HDB and BSC. Total took 2 months for rectification and it is not done. I will bring this up to HDB when I am free and also ST if needed to demand that I DO NOT HAVE TO PAY CONVERSARY FEE (how u spell...lol) for 2 months which is the fault of the HDB.

:D
